<S2 P. TAMERON, ON SOME NEW fiKNKRA AND SPECIES OF 



keel is steeply sloped, almost vertical ; the post-scutellum is 

 placed considerably below the keeled top of the scutellum. 

 Metanotum short, broadly rounded at the apex ; none of" the 

 areae are defined ; the areola only at the base ; the base, behind 

 the areola, is steeply depressed. Head almost cubital ; the tem- 

 ples wide, rounded, but not narrowed ; the occiput deeply, 

 widely incised. Clypeus at the apex broadly rounded at the 

 sides ; the labrum hidden. 'Pronotum broadly roundly dilated 

 at the base. Abdomen with 8 dorsal segments ; the penultimate 

 as long as the preceding ; sheath of ovipositor broad, largely 

 projecting. Post-petiole slightly, roundly dilated at the base. 

 Legs stout, of moderate length, the claws closely strongly 

 pectinated, except at apex, which is sharp and roundly curved. 

 Transverse median nervure received distinctly beyond the basal; 

 disco-cubital nervure unbroken ; the areolet oblique, 4-angled. 

 Metathoracic spiracles large, linear ; those of the 1-^^ abdo- 

 minal segment large, linear. Ventral keel reaching to apex of 

 3i"<î segment. 



The eyes are large, parallel ; there is a iistinct malar space. 

 Temples and occiput sharply margined. Mandibles large, curved, 

 stoutly bidentate. Clypeus not separated from the face. Antennae 

 dilated beyond the middle. The 3'd and 4^'' joints of the fore 

 tarsi are narrowed at the base, gradually dilated on the outer- 

 side to the apex, they are thickly spinose at the apex. 



Comes nearest, in the systems of Ashmead and Schmied- 

 neckt, to Neotypus Foer., which may be known by the very 

 small, rounded spiracles on 1«^ abdominal segment and by the 

 claws being shortly pectinated at the base only.
